Thank-you ‘baskets’

The ‘basket’: A monthly tradition

Every month, Milton Police Foundation’s Paula Gierke dreams up some gesture of gratitude from the MPF board and citizens of Milton to our esteemed police officers. We want to remind them of how much we think of and appreciate them. For years, Paula had used a basket to drop off the MPF token of appreciation, so the name has stuck.

Recently, Paula dropped by the MPD with that month’s offering: Bean dips and chips. Detective Amy Camden just happened to be present to receive the ‘basket’ from Paula. She assured Paula that she’d share with the rest of the officers.
